Al Kadrie by Al shareef Oudh

Imagen
An olfactory trip in its quintessence The other day, I introduced you to Al Shareef Oudh house, tell you about its story and showed you a review of Ward, a mesmerizing rose based attar. (read it here Today we are talking about Al Kadrie, an Indonesian Oudh oil full of personality that will take you in to a journey, straight like that. LEt me take you into Pontianak in West Kalimantan, Indonesia..... NOTES Freshly picked beautiful green Arabica coffee, woody, ambergris salty, bamboo dark, bitter, salty resinous strong oudhy base. There is no barn in this oil only oudhy ooomph, the same scent you encounter when you put a fragrant wild piece to your nose and inhale. REVIEW Picture yourself walking in the middle of a wild rainforest in the stunning location of Pontianak in West Kalimantan Indonesia. This is where this oudh fat will take you in a matter of seconds. An intriguing, mysterious and powerful strong oudh but in the best sense of the word. It opens intense, campho...

Ambre Nuit by Dior

Imagen
A delightful oriental scent  *Not my photo. Photo source: Internet Review based on a large sample obtained directly from Dior. Ambre Nuit is my favorite from the original La Collection Privée by Dior alongside Gris Montaigne (nowadays called Gris Dior). “Ambre Nuit orchestrates the meeting of two extremes. It is, to a certain extent, the olfactory expression of Beauty and the Beast. This perfume unites the somber, animal facet of amber with the delicate velvet effect of Turkish rose. It is, at the same time, a night wave of amber. Like when delicacy and strength dialogue, where opposites attract each other forming a powerful duo.” François Demachy, Perfumer-Creator Dior NOTES Amber, Rose. REVIEW Sparkling, crisp and fresh thin layer of bergamot wrapping the two clear protagonists of this truly sophisticated piece that will bewitch your soul with its deep and powdery grey amber and its oriental, luxurious, deep and velvety rose. Delicacy, refinement, q...

Baccarat Rouge 540 Eau de Parfum by MAison Francis Kurkdjian

Imagen
Fluffy sweet floriental Baccarat Rouge 540 is born from the encounter between Maison Francis Kurkdjian and Maison Baccarat. An eau de parfum celebrating the 250th anniversary of the famous crystal house. NOTES Jasmine, Saffron, Cedar Wood, Ambergris.  REVIEW Fluffy sweet floriental where a resinous aura mixed with a jasmine note creates a quite strange highly addictive sweet accord that rests on a bed of warm woods. It's elegant, sensual, sophisticated and it has a gourmand undertone that smells like flowers covered with cotton candy. Dulce y esponjoso floriental donde un aura resinosa mezclada con una nota de jazmín crea un acorde dulce muy adictivo bastante extraño que descansa sobre una cama de maderas cálidas. Es elegante, sensual, sofisticado y tiene un matiz goloso y comestible que huele a flores cubiertas de algodón de azúcar.

Safran Colognisé by Nishane

Imagen
Another Jorge Lee gem based on re-imagining of the fresh lemon cologne (original Colognisé) kept on-hand in most Turkish households Since its debut last year, Nishane's Colognise- a lovely and invigorating re-imagining of the fresh lemon cologne kept on-hand in most Turkish households- has been an office favorite, a striking yet casual scent perfect for any situation. Now, with Safran Colognise, they've brought back the core of the fragrance with a pronounced dash of fiery saffron, and the result is strikingly unique- a fragrance with the delightful energy of the original, but a robust, exotic character all its own. Safran Colognise's bright, citrussy opening will be familiar to fans of the original, but it arrives right away with a twist all its own- the tropical juiciness of passionfruit, which helps open the palate to the rich spiciness of saffron, combined with pink pepper for a powerful heart that maintains an airy freshness- less herbaceous than its predecessor ...

Encens Mythique by Guerlain

Imagen
A rare exotic aroma with a very prominent Guerlain personality                                Collage made with images from internet A majestic Middle Eastern way to portrait an aldehydic nature, abstract rose note, dusty frankincense and ambergris. Encens Mytique is all about a soapy-salty ambergris embraced by abstract rose, effervescent aldehydes and the powdery Guerlain DNA. The ambergris note is slightly animalic somewhat leathery from time to time but simultaneously powdery creating a soapy accord that results in a rare exotic aroma with a very prominent Guerlain personality very classy, sophisticated and mature. Superb work by Thierry Wasser for the Les Absolus D'Orient Collection. Una majestuosa forma al estilo de Oriente Medio para retratar una naturaleza aldehídica, una nota abstracta de rosa, empolvado ...

Ambra Avrea by Profvmvm Roma

Imagen
If you are looking for an opulent, rich and dense scent that are based around ambergris... AMBRA AVREA PROFVMVM ROMA Not the typical sweet or vanillic amber scent Ambra Avrea is an ode to ambergris and could easily be set as an standard for it. It's almost an ambergris soliflore in which a fantastic labdanum note mixed with myrrh and incense makes it more dark, dense and warm. It has a rich, salty, nutty, kinda vegetal smell with a caramel, honeyed, smoked and incens-y at the edges thanks to the fantastic labdanum note in it. If you are looking for an opulent, rich and dense scent that are based around ambergris in it's purest form mixed with labdanum, resins and incense, look no more, here you have your holy grail. Review based on a sample provided by Le Secret du Marais Photo from Internet. No es el típico aroma ambarado, dulce o avainillido. Ambra Avrea es una oda al ámbar gris y se puede establecer fácilmente como un estándar. Es casi un soliflore de ámbar gris en el...

Colonia Ambra by Acqua di Parma

Imagen
Acqua di Parma's take on Ambergris theme in their Ingredients Collection A fresh start with the typical AdP opening signature of the house with some sparkling citrus, rapidly starts to drydown with a leathery vibe more in a fur way than leather. Ambra's heart is composed of Ambergris accord, woods and labdanum. It's stale, musky and pungent. You wouldn't say this is from Acqua di Parma if you know the house as there's nothing brilliant, airy, clean, etc. in here. I don't know if the ambergris in here is natural or not, I suppose that due the regulations it's ambroxan but it definitely smells like the real thing. Una salida fresca típica firma de la casa de AdP, con algunos brillantes cítricos, rápidamente comienza a secarse con una sensación de cuero más en forma de piel que de cuero. El corazón de ambra es acorde de Ambar gris, maderas y ládano. Es duro, almizclado y acre. No dirías que esto es de Acqua di Parma si conoces la casa, ya que aquí no hay ...

Cheerful, fresh and sweet take on rose by Tauer Cheerful, fresh, fruity and sweet opening full of raspberry, citrus and lavender. The drydown shows a classic Tauer vibe with a hyper realistic rose mixed with sweet and creamy notes as vanilla, tonka bean and sandalwood.

Imagen
